Planning Your Wedding: Tip #7
Tip #7: Be consistent.
It’s easy to get distracted by all the wedding ideas out there. Between bridal fairs, magazines and countless blogs it can certainly become overwhelming, but the key to a well designed event is consistency. Once you’ve taken the time to determine your wedding style, theme and atmosphere – don’t deviate! From the style of your dress to the centrepieces and the linens on the table, the visual components of your wedding should tie together nicely and reflect a similar look and feeling.
One of the easiest ways to ensure a cohesive event is through your wedding stationary. The wedding invitations speak volumes about what kind of event your guests can expect to attend, so it’s important to ensure this first impression truly reflects your wedding style. The level of formality will be communicated through the type of papers, fonts and wording that you use, as well as your venue selections. It’s wise to carry the design of your wedding invitations through to all other wedding stationary, such as ceremony programs, table numbers, menu cards, favour tags – even your guestbook.
Here’s an example of one of our couples’ weddings:
- Wedding Theme: “Urban Glamour”
- Wedding Style: Modern, edgy, Hollywood glitz + glamour
- Wedding Colours: Black, white and turquoise
- Details: White phalaenopsis orchids, damask linens, crystal and feather centrepieces
